National Storage Affiliates Trust Reports First Quarter 2021 Results

GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- National Storage Affiliates Trust ("NSA" or the "Company") (NYSE: NSA) today reported the Company’s first quarter 2021 results.

First Quarter 2021 Highlights

  • Reported net income of $27.6 million for the first quarter of 2021, an increase of 75.3% compared to the first quarter of 2020. Reported diluted earnings per share of $0.19 for the first quarter of 2021 compared to $0.06 for the first quarter of 2020.
  • Reported core funds from operations ("Core FFO") of $51.2 million, or $0.49 per share for the first quarter of 2021, an increase of 22.5% per share compared to the first quarter of 2020.
  • Reported an increase in same store net operating income ("NOI") of 11.5% for the first quarter of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, driven by an 8.1% increase in same store total revenues partially offset by an increase of 0.6% in same store property operating expenses.
  • Reported same store period-end occupancy of 93.8% as of March 31, 2021, an increase of 690 basis points compared to March 31, 2020.
  • Settled the remaining portion of the previously announced underwritten public offering completed under forward sale agreements (the "forward offering") by physically delivering 3,049,490 common shares of beneficial interest ("common shares") to the forward purchasers on March 22, 2021 for net proceeds of approximately $97.3 million.
  • Acquired 23 wholly-owned self storage properties for $166.0 million during the first quarter of 2021. Consideration for these acquisitions included the issuance of $22.9 million of OP equity.

Highlights Subsequent to Quarter-End

  • NSA closed approximately $204.1 million of additional wholly-owned self storage property acquisitions.
  • Entered into an agreement to issue $180.0 million of senior unsecured notes with a weighted average rate of 2.87% and a weighted average maturity of 9.6 years in a private placement to certain institutional investors.

Tamara Fischer, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are off to an exceptional start in 2021, with first quarter same store NOI growth of 11.5% and over $370 million of acquisitions closed year to date. The self storage sector and our portfolio continue to benefit from a surge in customer demand, which is driving occupancies to all time highs and fueling our revenue management strategies. Further, the acquisition market remains very active and we are realizing the benefits of our unique PRO structure, which essentially provides us with 10 acquisition teams across the country, in addition to our corporate acquisition team. Given the favorable results in the first quarter, and the impressive momentum that we are experiencing thus far in the second quarter, we have raised our same store NOI and core FFO per share guidance for 2021. It’s a great time to be in the self storage business."

Net income increased $11.9 million for the first quarter of 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020. The increase resulted primarily from additional NOI generated from the 41 self storage properties acquired between April 1, 2020 and December 31, 2020, 23 wholly-owned self storage properties acquired during the first quarter of 2021 and same store NOI growth of 11.5% for the first quarter of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, partially offset by increases in depreciation and amortization.

The increase in FFO and Core FFO for the first quarter of 2021 was primarily the result of incremental NOI from properties acquired between April 1, 2020 and March 31, 2021 and same store NOI growth.

%

Year-over-year same store total revenues increased 8.1% for the first quarter of 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020. The increase was driven primarily by a 560 basis point increase in average occupancy and a 1.4% increase in average annualized rental revenue per occupied square foot. Markets which generated above portfolio average same store total revenue growth include: Portland, Phoenix, Sarasota and Houston. Markets which generated below portfolio average same store total revenue growth include: Atlanta, Dallas, Los Angeles and Tulsa.

Year-over-year same store property operating expenses increased 0.6% for the first quarter of 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020. The increase primarily resulted from increases in property taxes, utilities and repairs and maintenance expense offset by decreases in personnel and marketing expense.

Investment Activity

During the first quarter, NSA invested approximately $166.0 million in the acquisition of 23 self storage properties consisting of approximately 1.5 million rentable square feet configured in approximately 11,300 storage units. Total consideration for these acquisitions included approximately $141.9 million of net cash, the issuance of approximately $13.6 million of OP units and $9.3 million of subordinated performance units and the assumption of approximately $1.1 million of other liabilities.

Balance Sheet

On March 22, 2021, the Company settled the remaining portion of the previously announced forward offering by physically delivering 3,049,490 common shares to the forward purchasers for net proceeds of approximately $97.3 million. The Company used the proceeds to acquire self storage properties, repay outstanding amounts on its revolving line of credit and for general corporate purposes.

During the first quarter, the Company received approximately $25.1 million of net proceeds from the sale of 642,726 common shares under the Company's at the market (“ATM”) program. Subsequent to quarter end, the Company received approximately $53.0 million of net proceeds from the sale of 1,320,000 common shares under the ATM program.

On April 8, 2021, Kroll Bond Rating Agency affirmed the issuer credit rating of the Company's operating partnership at BBB and revised its outlook to Positive from Stable.

On May 3, 2021, the Company's operating partnership entered into an agreement to issue $35.0 million of 2.16% senior unsecured notes due May 4, 2026 (the "2026 Notes"), $90.0 million of 3.00% senior unsecured notes due May 4, 2031 (the "May 2031 Notes") and $55.0 million of 3.10% senior unsecured notes due May 4, 2033 (the "2033 Notes"). The funding of the 2033 Notes is expected to occur on or before May 26, 2021 and the funding of the 2026 Notes and the May 2031 Notes is expected to occur on or before July 26, 2021, subject to customary closing conditions. The Company plans to use the proceeds to repay outstanding amounts on its revolving line of credit and for general corporate purposes.

Common Share Dividends

On February 25, 2021, NSA's Board of Trustees declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.35 per common share, which was paid on March 31, 2021 to shareholders of record as of March 15, 2021.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures & Glossary

This press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP measures are presented because NSA's management believes these measures help investors understand NSA's business, performance and ability to earn and distribute cash to its shareholders by providing perspectives not immediately apparent from net income (loss). These measures are also frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties. The presentations of FFO, Core FFO and NOI in this press release are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, NSA's method of calculating these measures may be different from methods used by other companies, and, accordingly, may not be comparable to similar measures as calculated by other companies that do not use the same methodology as NSA. These measures, and other words and phrases used herein, are defined in the Glossary in the supplemental financial information and, where appropriate, reconciliations of these measures and other non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in the Schedules to this press release and in the supplemental financial information.

Amounts represent distributions declared for subordinated performance unitholders and DownREIT subordinated performance unitholders for the periods presented.

(2)

NSA combines OP units and DownREIT OP units with common shares because, after the applicable lock-out periods, OP units in the Company's operating partnership are redeemable for cash or, at NSA's option, exchangeable for common shares on a one-for-one basis and DownREIT OP units are also redeemable for cash or, at NSA's option, exchangeable for OP units in the Company's operating partnership on a one-for-one basis, subject to certain adjustments in each case. Subordinated performance units, DownREIT subordinated performance units and LTIP units may also, under certain circumstances, be convertible into or exchangeable for common shares (or other units that are convertible into or exchangeable for common shares). See footnote(4) for additional discussion of subordinated performance units, DownREIT subordinated performance units, and LTIP units in the calculation of FFO and Core FFO per share and unit.

(3)

Represents the dilutive effect of the forward offering from the application of the treasury stock method.

Adjustment accounts for the difference between the weighted average number of shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share and the weighted average number of shares used to calculate FFO and Core FFO per share and unit. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the two-class method for the company's restricted common shares and the treasury stock method for certain unvested LTIP units, and assumes the conversion of vested LTIP units into OP units on a one-for-one basis and the hypothetical conversion of subordinated performance units, and DownREIT subordinated performance units into OP units, even though such units may only be convertible into OP units (i) after a lock-out period and (ii) upon certain events or conditions. For additional information about the conversion of subordinated performance units and DownREIT subordinated performance units into OP units, see Note 10 to the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The computation of weighted average shares and units for FFO and Core FFO per share and unit includes all restricted common shares and LTIP units that participate in distributions and excludes all subordinated performance units and DownREIT subordinated performance units because their effect has been accounted for through the allocation of FFO to the related unitholders based on distributions declared.

(5)

Represents the effect of adjusting the numerator to consolidated net income (loss) prior to GAAP allocations for noncontrolling interests, after deducting preferred share and unit distributions, and before the application of the two-class method and treasury stock method, as described in footnote(4).
